10 famous Indian cricketers and their fathers’ occupations
While some Indian cricketers come from privileged backgrounds, others have to make many sacrifices in order to realise their dreams.
3. Yuvraj Singh and Yograj Singh
Yograj Singh played one Test and six ODIs for India. The fast bowler was not happy with the lack of opportunities he got to represent the nation, and he shifted his focus to making his son, Yuvraj Singh, a cricketer who would win India many matches down the line. Yograj made his son go through a rigorous and demanding training routine. Yuvraj revealed that his father made him practice for six hours. His mother thought that the strict techniques would take the life of her son. However, the hard work paid dividends as Yuvraj went on to become one of the finest white-ball cricketers in international cricket. Yograj has a cricket academy, where he trains aspiring youngsters to reach the next level.
